<title>arm64: Add work around for Arm Cortex-A55 Erratum 1024718</title>

<content type='text'>
Some variants of the Arm Cortex-55 cores (r0p0, r0p1, r1p0) suffer
from an erratum 1024718, which causes incorrect updates when DBM/AP
bits in a page table entry is modified without a break-before-make
sequence. The work around is to skip enabling the hardware DBM feature
on the affected cores. The hardware Access Flag management features
is not affected. There are some other cores suffering from this
errata, which could be added to the midr_list to trigger the work
around.

Expose the new features introduced by Arm v8.4 extensions to
Arm v8-A profile.

These include :

 1) Data indpendent timing of instructions. (DIT, exposed as HWCAP_DIT)
 2) Unaligned atomic instructions and Single-copy atomicity of loads
    and stores. (AT, expose as HWCAP_USCAT)
 3) LDAPR and STLR instructions with immediate offsets (extension to
    LRCPC, exposed as HWCAP_ILRCPC)
 4) Flag manipulation instructions (TS, exposed as HWCAP_FLAGM).

Remove the invisible RES0 field entries from the table, listing
fields in CPU ID feature registers, as :
 1) We are only interested in the user visible fields.
 2) The field description may not be up-to-date, as the
    field could be assigned a new meaning.
 3) We already explain the rules of the fields which are not
    visible.

<title>arm64: KVM: Allow mapping of vectors outside of the RAM region</title>

<id>dee39247dc75465a24990cb1772c6aaced5fd910</id>
<content type='text'>
We're now ready to map our vectors in weird and wonderful locations.
On enabling ARM64_HARDEN_EL2_VECTORS, a vector slot gets allocated
if this hasn't been already done via ARM64_HARDEN_BRANCH_PREDICTOR
and gets mapped outside of the normal RAM region, next to the
idmap.

That way, being able to obtain VBAR_EL2 doesn't reveal the mapping
of the rest of the hypervisor code.

Pull arm64 updates from Catalin Marinas:
 "The main theme of this pull request is security covering variants 2
  and 3 for arm64. I expect to send additional patches next week
  covering an improved firmware interface (requires firmware changes)
  for variant 2 and way for KPTI to be disabled on unaffected CPUs
  (Cavium's ThunderX doesn't work properly with KPTI enabled because of
  a hardware erratum).

  Summary:

   - Security mitigations:
      - variant 2: invalidate the branch predictor with a call to
        secure firmware
      - variant 3: implement KPTI for arm64

   - 52-bit physical address support for arm64 (ARMv8.2)

   - arm64 support for RAS (firmware first only) and SDEI (software
     delegated exception interface; allows firmware to inject a RAS
     error into the OS)

   - perf support for the ARM DynamIQ Shared Unit PMU

   - CPUID and HWCAP bits updated for new floating point multiplication
     instructions in ARMv8.4

   - remove some virtual memory layout printks during boot

   - fix initial page table creation to cope with larger than 32M kernel
     images when 16K pages are enabled"

<title>arm64: cpu_errata: Add Kryo to Falkor 1003 errata</title>

<id>bb48711800e6d7aedbf4dfd3367e0ab1270a6bea</id>
<content type='text'>
The Kryo CPUs are also affected by the Falkor 1003 errata, so
we need to do the same workaround on Kryo CPUs. The MIDR is
slightly more complicated here, where the PART number is not
always the same when looking at all the bits from 15 to 4. Drop
the lower 8 bits and just look at the top 4 to see if it's '2'
and then consider those as Kryo CPUs. This covers all the
combinations without having to list them all out.

The Kryo CPUs are also affected by the Falkor 1003 errata, so
we need to do the same workaround on Kryo CPUs. The MIDR is
slightly more complicated here, where the PART number is not
always the same when looking at all the bits from 15 to 4. Drop
the lower 8 bits and just look at the top 4 to see if it's '2'
and then consider those as Kryo CPUs. This covers all the
combinations without having to list them all out.

ARM v8.4 extensions add new neon instructions for performing a
multiplication of each FP16 element of one vector with the corresponding
FP16 element of a second vector, and to add or subtract this without an
intermediate rounding to the corresponding FP32 element in a third vector.

This patch detects this feature and let the userspace know about it via a
HWCAP bit and MRS emulation.
